The frame-rate boundary is correct as a product rule, but it only bites in a
Release build, where DevBuild.IsDevelopment is false and DeveloperMode cannot
unlock anything — exactly the build whose performance numbers are worth reading
(see docs/ai/environment.md: Debug pixel paths are several times slower). 60 fps
could not be tested at all.
OutputProfile.EntitlementEnforced is false: every shipped tier is selectable by
any build, and HasProOutput — the one property the tier setter, the dropdown's
strikethrough and the locked-item style all read — answers yes regardless of
ownership. static readonly rather than const, so the consumed `||` does not fold
into unreachable operand code (same reason as DevBuild.IsDevelopment).
The licence indicator row is suppressed while the switch is off: it exists to
explain what the boundary costs, and claiming "Steam ID Limit: 60fps" to an
unowned build would be a false statement. Docs corrected in place — the enforced
rule is unchanged, only its state is recorded.
Tests: one integration case covers both switch states (unowned build reaches
1080p60 with the switch off, 1080p30 with it on), so flipping at launch leaves no
red test behind. The two suites that anchor on the pinned licence row early-return
while it is absent; EntitlementTests covers that state meanwhile.
667 pass, build 0 warnings.
Derived from the clock rather than a literal, so a build shipped next year does not display a stale
date. The About test asserts the rendered string, year included.
Creator: system messages are limited to two lines; the label above the message ('STEAM ID NOT
PRESENT', 'STREAM') was repeating what the row already said and pushing the stack past its budget.
AttentionAlert loses Label; rows render Text only. The licence row is now exactly:
Steam ID Limit: 30fps
Click for More Info
(60fps with a close control once owned). Rows are identified by Id internally, so nothing in the UI
depends on the removed text. Tests updated to assert position/text rather than the heading.
A dead encoder used to run the whole stop path, so a one-second blip ended the broadcast. Now a dropped
push is relaunched against the same ingest while the broadcast is still alive.
- `Services/StreamRetryPolicy.cs` — immediate, +1 s, +2 s, +3 s. Minimum waits on purpose (creator
ruling): YouTube's grace is short, so every second not pushing is grace spent.
- `Services/StreamRecovery.cs` — the loop, with the audio pipe recreated before every attempt (its
server is single-instance and unusable after the old client dies, so a naive relaunch fails on a
missing input). After a push comes up it asks the API whether the broadcast survived: "complete"
ends recovery as `BroadcastComplete` instead of showing a live sign over a dead stream; an API
hiccup counts as recovered rather than ending a healthy session.
- `FramePump.EncoderFailed` — a dead push is recoverable; a compositor fault still goes through
`Failed` and ends the session, because retrying it would loop.
- `MainViewModel.Recovery.cs` — wires the steps, reports each episode into the left panel alert stack
(one row per episode, updated in place, log range painted), and cancels on Stop.
- Alert stack polish: a rule and a gap now separate the stack from the scene layers (they read as one
list before), and the licence indicator uses the creator's wording — `STEAM ID NOT PRESENT` /
`Steam ID Limit: 30fps` / `Click for More Info`, becoming `STEAM ID PRESENT` / `60fps` with a close
control once owned.
Tests: `StreamRecoveryTests` (schedule, recover on attempt 2 with the pipe restarted each time,
complete-broadcast honesty, unknown liveness, give-up, cancel, audio-restart fault),
`FramePumpTests` now pin that process death raises `EncoderFailed` and not `Failed`.
FAST gate: 538 passed (one documented pre-existing audio failure), 0 warnings.
Creator design (2026-11-05). A stack of red rows at the top of the left panel, above both mode grids
so it shows while editing and while live, pushing the panel's content down.
- Row 1 is the **Steam licence indicator** and nothing displaces it. It reads as status, not a
warning: "Entitlement 30 fps · Maximum 60 fps", both numbers derived from QualityOptions and
HasProOutput. While higher tiers are unavailable it shows a **pin** (standing indicator, no close
control); once ownership is verified the pin becomes a **close control** and the dismissal is
persisted (`Steam.LicenceIndicatorDismissed`), permanent while ownership holds. Losing ownership
restores it as pinned — a change of state, not a preference. Click → About.
- **Event rows stack beneath, newest first**, one row per episode (an episode advancing its state
updates its own row rather than adding another). Each is dismissible. Click → the Logs tab opens
with that event's sequence range painted red (`HighlightedLogFrom/To` + `LogInRangeConverter`; two
numbers rather than a collection because the log list is virtualised and realised rows do not
re-evaluate on membership changes).
- Replaces the old red panel under the quality picker, which is removed.
- The Steam diagnostic text loses "Contact the creator or support" for a neutral
"Steam licensing is not configured in this build."
Tests: `AttentionAlertStackTests` — pinned first with the status text; owned → closable and the close
survives a reload but ownership loss restores it pinned; pinned cannot be dismissed; event rows LIFO
with in-place episode updates; clicking an event opens Logs and sets its range. AboutHub + Entitlement
tests updated for the removed panel and the new wording. FAST gate: 532 passed, 0 failed, 0 warnings.
Keep non-owner resolution choices visible but muted. Selecting one preserves the free tier and opens About; external navigation is only the explicit llamacasty.com link. Ref: https://streamlabs.com/desktop
